If the slope is -1, this means that for every time you add 1 to X, you add -1 to (subtract one from) Y. So, the line would go down at an equal amount as it goes over. If the line crosses 0,0 then it would appear to cut the upper left and lower right quadrants in perfect triangular halves.
It is a horizontal line that intersects the y axis at negative 1

Solve the line equation for "y", to get it in slope-intercept form. You can immediately read the slope from this equation.Divide -1 by (slope of this first line) to get the slope of the second line - the one perpendicular to the given line. Write an equation for any line with this slope.

To determine the order of reaction from a graph, you can look at the slope of the graph. If the graph is linear and the slope is 1, the reaction is first order. If the slope is 2, the reaction is second order. If the slope is 0, the reaction is zero order.
It is a horizontal line that intersects the y axis at negative 1
The slope is zero.
Any graph with the slope of -1/2
It looks like a straight line, that crosses the y-axis at y=1, and slopes up from left to right with a slope of 1/2 .
The slope of the graph of [ y = x + any number ] is 1 .
The equation has no slope. The graph of the equation is a straight line with a slope of -1 .

If you had a problem like this... y=3x-1 you would go down 1 point on the graph and point it then go up three and over one as the slope.
It is 6 and the y intercept is -1
The slope of the graph of that equation is -1.
